bars to get you through a short disaster.\u00a0 A high-calorie, nutrient-dense bar can provide you with sugars, proteins, and carbohydrates to keep you moving and keep you alive.\u00a0 The problem with many bars is that you don\u2019t know what they are putting in them.\u00a0 The other problem is that they can focus on nutrition so much that they taste as good as wet cardboard.\u00a0 While having some granola bars in your inventory is great, when you make a batch of bars yourself, you will find that they taste better, and you know exactly what kind of nutrients and calories you are taking into your body.\u00a0 These are calorically-dense bars that will fuel you up through any disaster.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s get one thing clear.\u00a0 I am not much of a baker.\u00a0 I have had more than my share of failures trying to develop a good-tasting calorie-dense bar.\u00a0 I can make an occasional loaf of bread and maybe some cookies, and I can cook just about anything else in the world, but baking just isn\u2019t my thing.\u00a0 Sometimes, the trash can is the only place for some of my baking experiments.\u00a0\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium

calorically and nutrient-dense bar.\u00a0 It might not be the best, but it tastes good and has the calories you would need after a disaster to sustain you.\u00a0 Here we will make a calorically dense, nutritious emergency ration bar with a decent shelf-life.\u00a0 I will take it a step further in this video and take moisture readings from one I left out overnight, one that I dehydrated, and one that I freeze-dried.\u00a0 From this, we can try and determine shelf-life.\u00a0 There are many recipes online for emergency ration bars, and I have tried many. \u00a0 Let\u2019s do
